Our Story

73% of women would choose to wear a wire free bra if it offered the same support as a wired one, and 63% often sigh with relief when they take it off*. So why on earth do so many of us wear them? It seems that until now women have had very limited options. Bras Without Wires was born out of necessity – you deserve comfort, beauty, style, support and a product crafted with sustainability in mind. Sydney based CEO and founder, Stephanie Devine, commenced her life calling in 2013 to search for wire free bra nirvana.

Bras Without Wires creates stunning and original wire free bras, in your cup size, with all the support and none of the wire. Our wire free bras are made from the most luxurious European lace, fabrics and trims, and always lined with Australian made organic cotton. The team at Bras Without Wires has found audacious ways to lift, support and separate wirelessly, because you can never underestimate the importance of a beautiful, well-fitting wire free bra.

Our ‘women without wires’ swear it’s the best fitting, most comfortable wire free bra they’ve ever worn. Since launching Bras Without Wires, we have experienced a groundswell of smart women looking for a way out of the wire.

Stephanie’s original motivation for Bras Without Wires came when searching for a softer, wire free bra solution, post surgery for breast cancer. In the absence of anything remotely appealing, she set about making the wire free bra she couldn’t find. She cut, wrapped and stitched fabric, rejecting all the accepted wisdom. Eventually, the original Annie Bra went into production late 2013. In 2014, Stephanie Devine reached the final 20 in the LIVESTRONG Foundation’s inaugural Big C Competition from 780 entrants in 33 countries. Funding came through, and Bras Without Wires re-branded and re-launched its range of beautiful wire free bras in February 2016.

Remaining true to our roots, every Bras Without Wires wire free bra will always be lined in organic cotton – “fit-for-purpose” for women undergoing radiotherapy, but not a cancer bra. And for the growing number of women undergoing elective, cosmetic breast surgery of any kind who can’t wear wires for months afterwards (if indeed ever), Bras Without Wires is a beautiful solution for your post surgery wire free bra.

Most of all, it’s an organic cotton bra for Everywoman and her daughter, sister, mother and friends, who are ready to make the move to a wire free bra.

Because we love breasts and wish healthy ones to all, Bras Without Wires will donate $1 for every wire free bra sold to the National Breast Cancer Foundation, to contribute to the research that will find a cure.
